This section provides information about our contribution and progress to protecting the environment and conserving natural resources.

  • Total GHG emissions

    HMBV is committed to continuously reducing its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. GHG emissions are divided into three categories – Scope 1 (gas emissions), Scope 2 (energy emissions) and Scope 3 (waste generated). HMBV has set quantitative targets for its GHG emissions in each category.

     

    Scope 1: Gas emissions

    Target

    Reduce gas emissions with 5% each year

     

    Scope 2: Energy emissions

    Target

    Reduce energy emissions with 2% each year

     

    Scope 3: Waste generated in operations

    * Tracking of LDPE foil waste started in June 2022. Therefore, the waste for quarters 1 and 2 of 2022 was extracted from the known data of quarters 3 and 4 of 2022. From quarters 3 and 4, the average was calculated and used as input for quarters 1 and 2 of 2022 to arrive at the above figure in kg.

    Target

    By 2025, all company vehicles are 100% powered by electricity, hydrogen or synthetic fuel

     

    Energy & gas consumption


    HMBV's energy resources currently consist of 66.3% renewable energy.

    Target

    • By 2030, HMBV aims to obtain 80% of its energy consumption from renewable energy sources
    • By 2050, HMBV aims to obtain 100% of its energy consumption from renewable energy sources

  • Water management

    Water consumption

    Total weight of pollutants discharged into water:

    Type of pollutantGrams
    Cadmium 0.3

  • Material, chemicals and waste management

    Target

    • Reduce industrial waste with 2% each year. This contains all non-recyclable waste
    • Have an 80% recycling rate by 2030
